GOP elites have a problem with Roy Moore, which of course means we must elect him

I just got an email this morning from Senate Conservatives Fund telling its followers and supporters that the Republican Establishment is not going to get involved in the Alabama Race. It seems that Mitch McConnell’s PAC and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce (or as Mark Levin likes to call them “…Chamber of Crony Capitalism”) are not going to spend money in order to help Judge Roy Moore cross the finish line.

A very winnable race

This is in spite the fact that this is a race that should be won. Alabama is a hands down red state. Granted McConnell and friends preferred Luther Strange and even with an endorsement from President Donald Trump, Strange did not have the name recognition. Neither did Mo Brooks who was Levin’s choice in the Senate runoff.
According to the polls this Senate race is not a runaway. Some polls have Moore tied with his Democrat opponent Doug Jones while others have Moore barely leading. A recent poll put out by WBRC-TV and its parent company Raycom Media has Moore with an 11-point lead. So, what is the problem? Judge Roy Moore alone will not change things overnight, but he is the kind of person that the Senate needs.

New #ALSEN poll shows Judge Moore with 11-point lead

Today, a poll of 3,000 likely voters in the race shows Judge Roy Moore leading Democrat Doug Jones by double digits. As I explained yesterday, a poll of likely voters is a more accurate representation of any race compared to registered voters.

The survey of 3,000 likely Alabama voters finds Moore receiving 51% support to 40% for Jones. Nine percent remain undecided in the exclusive poll conducted on Monday. Overall, 55% approve of the president’s job performance.

A challenge to conservatives who disagree with Roy Moore

A number of conservatives seem to believe Roy Moore is unsuitable for the Senate because he “defied federal court orders.” I have a couple questions for them.

Steve Deace & Todd Erzen – Why I have hope for California

If you want to reshape society and culture, you must win the worldview argument. Those who control the worldview of society are those who control society. The battle of ideas is fought and won on the field of worldviews. When you cease to fight and take the premise of your opponent’s worldview you have already lost. All you are doing is negotiating the terms of surrender.

Laws and morality: The battle of worldviews

You see, all laws are about making a moral judgment. As a society, we all have differing worldviews with many similarities. Those similarities which typically become the majority view in society end up becoming the laws of the land. Like in California, marijuana is okay, but crack cocaine isn’t. Porn actors engaging in sex for money is acceptable, but prostitution isn’t. Parental consent to teach sex education in school but none needed for an abortion.

I won’t back down

If your problem is with activist courts in general, this is the man that actual stands for constitutional laws and does recognize the role of the court to interrupt the laws based on what our U.S. Constitution actually says, and not what a judge personally feels what the law should be. If your problem is with his faith and with God, and the fact he stood by his Ten Commandments monuments; I say tough.
Like the late Tom Petty sang;
“You can stand me up at the gates of hell But I won’t back down….And I’ll keep this world from draggin’ me down. Gonna stand my ground And I won’t back down.”
CRTV’s Steve Deace asked a great question on his program. What kind of decisions would a federal judge make that the average conservative would truly say ‘No’ to? Deace points out recent decisions from abortion to rights for illegal immigrants and terrorists, and the redefinition of marriage. He also points out to past decisions from upholding slavery to the internment camps for Asians during World War II. Deace also points out that Moore will not obey any precedent that is not in line with our constitution (and truth be told it does mirror certain Judeo-Christian principles). To conclude, he asks what the Moore critics would do differently. Well I support Moore and I have an answer. Article V in our U.S. Constitution.
Meanwhile, Bill Kristol who speaks for the GOP Establishment tweeted
1. Doug Jones would be a better U.S. senator than Roy Moore.
2. Moore as a senator would be a constant embarrassment to the GOP.
Later he then tweeted
3. Moore’s defeat wouldn’t deprive GOP of Senate majority.
So why should Republican senators, donors, etc, support Moore?
A: They shouldn’t.

So, other than being ‘NeverTrump’ for the sake the GOP elite, he is also against Moore who will not back down from his faith while serving in public office of any kind. A constant embarrassment to the GOP? The Grand Ole Party is doing a good job of embarrassing themselves. They are not there to win a fight for the Conservative worldview. They will “back down” and will concede to whatever the Democrats and their progressive base want (as Konstantinos Roditis points out in his recent pieces at NOQ Report).

The takeaway

It seems to me they are there to get make their rich donors and favorite corporations wealthier at our expense, and/or make the current GOP leaders of the moment like McConnell more powerful.  Sadly, with that power he will not use to it help others, but only help himself first and foremost. Yet, Mitch McConnell seemed to enjoyed talking down to us a few days ago in the Rose Garden, about electing Republicans. Thank You Senator, we hear you loud and clear. We do read between the lines by the way.
Regardless of what you think of Trump, that is the reason why he is our current resident of our White House. Now we just someone that is of better character than Trump in other elected offices. Justice Roy Moore will do that very well as a U.S. Senator. Don’t get fooled by the GOP elite Alabama or the Democrats that truly fear him.
